Great premise, looks much better than SAS. Compared to Arceus, definitely a step down. They should have waited to add the new features and see the reception to them, for next year 2023. Battles are back to being slow, catching is more monotonous. You can't give us the amazing features of Arceus and expect us to be happy when the new MAINLINE game feels primitive compared to it.
The map is bugging me. Please for the love of god let me lock the mini map and it would have been SO EASY to let me mark points that aren't my immediate destination.
Performance is obvious. It's just so frustrating to see Game Freak fumble the bag over and over again. They have all the money required to make it run like BOTW. WHAT IS HAPPENING??? WHO IS LETTING THIS HAPPEN?? I haven't even really come across any game breaking bugs or anything but the technical choice to slow down frame-rate at a certain distance is SO OBVIOUS, and wall/rock textures stretching when I get close to them.
I do enjoy the pokemon interactions OUTSIDE of battle, like my legendary talking to the more friendly wild pokemon, and getting chased by an incredibly aggressive Flamigo. Inside of battle we are back to the same weird distance - at least we are fighting where we are and not in some void room.
Wish more shops were interactive and enter-able and not rabbitholes but with the way this game is running, I guess not.
I haven't finished the game so can't comment on story, but the aggressive 'DO WHATEVER YOU WANT' messaging is appreciated.
